Posting three suggestions I've seen posted by others in similar threads of this nature:

Try a different USB port

Reinstall Samsung drivers.

Try using a better quality micro USB cable, the stock one isn't reliable for some people.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] rickbuck:
Agree with the last suggestion. The stock cable is not of good quality. I thought I was having problems with my USB ports because I wasn't getting much response when flashing and attempting to transfer files.. But my daughters cable from a camera fit and when using it, everything worked great again.

I guess my question is if his phone is working fine with EB13, why go back to DK28? EB13 is pretty much the exact same as EB13, except EB13 has a couple big fixes. If anything, you will be downgrading. I could understand going back to DI18, but going back to DK28 just doesn't make any sense to me??
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] tee00max:
Well basically back to whatever is was before the update. Idk which version it was exactly. EB13 has way too many bugs on his phone that's why he wanted to take it back to where it was before the update.

So is the OP question answered?
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrisperNeO:
Hi,

I'm standing in front of a quick decision of whether or not buy an HD2, have to give a quick answer.

I have done a quick search and found out hat there are several options to get rid of the stock WM6.5:

Nand wp7;

Nand android (sense hd or cm7);

SD android;

Dual boot wp7 and SD android.

Is that all? Another question is how is the general battery life?

I have an HTC desire and I've configured it so well that my wife wants to have it to replace her phone. So my question here is that if someone can give me some general info on what status these options are at right now. Which one do you think is more mature than others? I'd like to have a rather stable build and I personally prefer nand android coz I have good experience with desire and I am familiar with the customization.

I can do the mods myself later, but I have to decide very soon if I'd buy an HD2 from a friend, under time stress I cannot get an overview very fast...

Thank you guys for understanding!

Typed with my Desire.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] roloracer:
First of all, if the price is right no matter what you're planning to do with it, the hd2 is an awesome device! It has been a long time since I have kept a phone for this long, me being a die hard htc modder, I find myself not needing to do much modding after I went nand back in january 6th, I love my phone and I'm planning on using it the full 22 months on my TMO contract until I can get an upgrade.

Now you're gonna get a one sided opinion from me since I hate windows phone 7, I can only tell you about my android experiences with my hd2.

I started to use dual boot sd android builds back in late october last year and I found that with a bit of tweaking I had a build that I could use every day and with the hot reboot option I totally stopped booting into windows mobile 6.5 unless I was gonna make some changes in my sd card. even when I was on sd card builds I got a decent battery life, around 10 to 14 hrs of moderate to heavy use, and now I'm running nand cyanogenmod7 android 2.3 and I unplug my phone around 3am to go to work and I still have about 15 to 20% around 8pm.

I'm sure you can tweak it to your hearts desire and make it run like a beast.

Now I don't know if you're a skilled phone modder/flasher but it's quite easy for everything to be done. I've been modding phones for a long time and it's a no brainer to me when it comes to phone flashing. Now you got to ask yourself this question, do I want to have a phone capable of running 5 different OS and have the capability of modifying it like no other phone I've owned before?

Now on the stability part of your question, it all depends on what you're looking for , a sense build, cyanogenmod, or miui. Depending who you talk to , they'll tell you their build is the most stable and it's perfect, meaning there's a lot of stable builds for the hd2, and there's a lot of developer support, so if there's an issue, a solution will be around the corner. So if you like the phone and it's within your price range then you wont regret it. :cool:
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
Is that all? I don't think many other phones can run that many OS's. ;)

But yeah its a beast. Most if not all the NAND ROM's are stable now and they're just improving as the days go on. If you're getting the HD2 for cheap and giving your wife your desire it would be well worth it. You could show off the fancy new Sense too. :D

Oh and XDA app might say I'm on a N1 but I'm actually on a very stable Gingerbread ROM. :)
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Skellyyy:
On a HD2 ofcourse lol.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
If you love to tweak, try out new stuff, explore, then this is your phone sent down from the heavens. Performance is great in every aspect, good enough for normal use. However it is non comparable to a true android device flashed with a custom rom and tweaked. Battery is okie. On normal use you could prolly get two days worth. However normal daily use meaning 45 mins of talkng/texting/email, 1 hr of internet, 30 mins of music, 30 mins of videos/games and then the rest on standby.

Now if you're looking for something that just works great, then get a true android phone, it'll save you the reading since you already know how to operate android phones and it'll run better than the HD2.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
This is the reply I most agreed with. It's the most versatile phone and most moddable... but if you're just looking to run android, a native phone will give you better, more stable performance when properly rooted and modded, and you will get better battery life out of a native phone. The android port on android gets good standby time, so if you don't use you phone much and it's usually on standby, you can get 2-3 days out of it. But it will only last about 3 hours of straight use... even less with some games or processor intensive apps. Surfing the web or using xda app will eat your battery up in about 3 hours, while with my brothers stock galaxy s phone with a similar sized battery, I will get double that, at least. The thing is, android is a port on the HD2, so the drivers used are not always the best and are usually based off of drivers meant for other devices.

But if you like modding and hacking your phone, and you want to dual boot wp7 and android, and can deal with the occasional bug or problem, and can deal with the bad battery life while using the phone, the HD2 is a great phone. I wouldn't trade it for any other phone out right now... but I dualboot wp7 and android, and like them both equally and couldn't decide which os I wanted if I had to pick another phone. And to think I originally bought this phone because it had winmo6.5... now I don't even have that OS on my phone!

Oh, another difference between the HD2 and a native android phone is that with the HD2 you only get 65,000 colors on the screen and only 2-point multitouch which can be buggy... with a native android phone you have something like 4million colors and newer android phones usually have true multitouch, which is more than 2 points. So you might get color banding on your screen with some launchers or apps on the HD2, and apps that use multitouch may have problems.

Many people who use android exclusively are looking to switch to native android phones, especially with the next gen phones coming out. But for the price that you can get the HD2, it can make a great android phone. So if you have the money to spare and just want android, I'd get one of the next generation android phones when they're released or get a DesireHD or something native if you need a phone now. But if you're on a budget, or love to play with phones, or want to dual-boot, then the HD2 is perfect.

Sorry for such a long. dragged on post. Tired right now, and kept thinkingof more things to add.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrisperNeO:
Thanks all you guys!

I think most of you are satisfied with your HD2.

I think I can handle the tweaks pretty well.

It seems that one can find a smooth build or ROM without big difficulty. But is the battery drain that bad? Three hours of constant use? I also read some other posts that say their battery can last about 10 hours with heavy use... I'm a little bit confused.

My Desire has a standby of more than 2 days with moderate use. With constant use is in any case more than 12 hours...
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] Kailkti:
3 hours depends on what you're doing. Eg. Listening music and playing games will prolly eat it up fast enough for maybe 3 hours or later, depends on whether the game is CPU and GPU intensive. If say your watching flash videos, you can expect prolly 3-4 hours also. but just surfing internet, I'd say 4-6, listening to music on speaker 5-6 , on headphones about 7-8, (both listening to music on standby), yeah pretty much that.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
I think when people say heavy use they are saying using it often, but not constantly on. If you have the screen constantly on and use it, the battery drain very quickly. When people make descriptions of heavy, moderate or light use, everyone means something different, so its hard to know what that means... but with constant use, the battery will drain in a few hours. That's where you really see the difference with the port on the hd2 and a native device. A native phone will get at least 6-8 hours of constant use usually. But the HD2 will drain quickly while you have screen on and web browsing or gaming, etc.

I've noticed a lot of people will like to exaggerate to try to prove their HD2 is as good as a native phone, but if you look around, most will admit that with constant web browsing or activity where the screen is on and in use, the phone only lasts 3-4 hours, maybe less with games. Personally I think the HD2 is better than a native android phone because of the ability to run wp7 also, and I have a spare battery I carry with me, and a big external battery I can take with me if I know I won't have anywhere to charge my battery.

Also, if you use a bluetooth headset, leaving bluetooth on really drains battery a lot during standby... the bluetooth driver for the HD2 android really needs to be worked on.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] CrisperNeO:
Thanks a lot!

So far you guys persuaded me.

I think I'll take the deal and give HD2 a try.

Typed with my Desire.
[HD2 Android Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting and Genera] zarathustrax:
Have fun... I'm sure you'll like it. All the stuff you can do with it kinda makes up for the bad battery life. You'll learn to conserve it, and it's not difficult carrying an extra battery. It gets addictive flashing your phone and updating all the time. It can become very time-consuming if you let it.

Good luck.

i cant believe that a custom rom get less than the original rom

so theres no way to use flash in cyanogenmod but its okay with the factory rom is this possible?

in addiction to this viewing videos with skyfire its not working as i see only black screen and than keep crashing, so no way to see a video in cm6?

i though it was the best rom, theres something better rom more compatible?

i rooted my shift last week. everything was fine, im not ready to get too crazy into flashing stuff yet (since the risk for bricking is higher with android). i like to take my time read, study, test small things here and there.
